​John could not accept being looked down upon like this by a young man. He felt his pride had been trampled on by Lucas.

​Hearing John's shout, Lucas stopped in his tracks. Then, he turned his head and said, "I don't want to waste my time on something trivial. Fighting weak people is a massive waste of time for me."

​John opened his mouth wide when he heard what Lucas said, implying that the fighters in his gym were weak.

​"How insolent of you to speak like that! If you truly possess high-level

    ​​The aura of a high-level mob boss emanated from Matteo. Even from his gaze alone, it implied that he was a ruthless man.​John sat on the sofa right across from Matteo. He sat with utmost politeness.​His attitude now was a complete 180-degree turn from when he was with other people; he wasn't even like this toward the chairman of the people's council, let alone with those beneath him. He was ordinarily arrogant beyond measure.​Yet in front of Matteo, John was like a motherless chick.​"I give you 5 minutes to explain what your business is meeting me so abruptly like this!" Matteo said, sharp and cold.​John nodded while saying, "Thank you very much, Chairman Matteo."​John then recounted what he had just experienced. He explained that his Brotherhood gym had been taken by force by Lucas, and that someone standing behind Lucas was Gigio.​Matteo furrowed his brow when John mentioned the name of the Vice Chairman of the Trade Union.​"You mean Gigio supports that man?" Matteo asked

    ​​Angeline realized that she couldn't show her dislike toward Viviana because of the woman's background. Furthermore, she also felt it would hurt her pride.​So, she chose to leave Lucas with that beautiful woman whose body was slimmer than hers.​'Typical men! Always trying to be a charmer! Disgusting!' Angeline thought to herself.​Lucas looked at Viviana's legs, which already looked very sturdy. He felt happy because of it.​"It seems you have recovered very quickly. Your condition is much better now, huh," Lucas said while looking at Viviana from head to toe.​Enthusiastically, Viviana said, "Yes, I am doing very well now. It seems I am almost 100% recovered."​Viviana gazed deeply into Lucas's eyes with implied affection. "All of this is because of Brother Lucas. I am incredibly thankful to you. Forever, I owe you my life."​"Don't say things like that. I was merely helping. The one who healed you is God, and your own body that reacted well," Lucas said.​The man always felt unc

    ​Jeremy could not fathom the familiarity that was happening. He almost fainted when Gigio put his arm around Lucas and brought him inside the Trade Union building.​"How is that possible? I must have seen something wrong. I must be hallucinating," Jeremy said with a trembling voice and a shaking body.​Suddenly, a security guard approached him.​The security guard asked in a raised tone of voice, "What are you doing here? Who are you spying on?"​Jeremy was so startled that he did a little jump. His face was as pale as a thief caught red-handed stealing.​"Ah, this... hmmm... well... I—"​"Hah! Just making excuses! Leave immediately!" the security guard exclaimed while pulling Jeremy's arm.​Jeremy could not resist the guard's forceful pull. He had no choice but to follow him rather than having his body dragged.​Even though the one doing it was just a security guard, Jeremy couldn't try anything funny because, after all, that security guard was an employee of the Trade Union.​In his

    ​The receptionist took the file Jeremy brought and looked at its front cover. She did not say anything while taking the file.​Her attitude was truly dreadful.​If even a receptionist had an attitude like this, what more the high-ranking officials of the Trade Union? They must be 10 times colder and more terrifying.​"Oh, so you want to report an alleged contract violation committed by the Neo company? That company is owned by the Brown Family?" the receptionist asked without any expression.​Jeremy nodded his head while saying, "Yes, that's correct. There are indications of a contract violation. And we are certain it exists. Therefore, we are reporting it to the Trade Union because we are unable to resolve it ourselves."​"Yeah, you know, the gap between my family and the Brown family is quite wide. So, we don't have any power to go against them," he continued with a smile.​Jeremy's intention was merely to joke around to break the ice.​Calmly, bordering on apathy, the receptionist

    ​Being pressured like that by her family made Angeline extremely frustrated. She was deeply disappointed about why she was always the one being sacrificed.​"Yes, it is all your fault. Because it's the fault of that stupid man who is with you!" Jeremy said with a voice trembling full of anger.​"We all told you to leave him. But you didn't listen to us. You didn't even listen to Grandma's advice. Now who is suffering? All of us!" Jeremy spoke while pointing at Angeline's face.​Ryan squeezed his fingers. He also felt that all of this could have happened because his daughter kept maintaining her relationship with Lucas.​However, he also couldn't bear to see his daughter constantly pressured and blamed like this. He wanted to defend her but couldn't find a solution to offer.​Jeremy turned to Lisa and said, "Grandma, it's best if Angeline alone solves all of this problem. Isn't this her mistake? If necessary, I will also drag that piece of trash before Mr. Victor and force him to lick

    ​​Diaz tried to recall what had just happened. He tried to remember the figure inside the car.​"No, I just remember what happened earlier. When I shot, the person who came out looked like a man and not a woman," Diaz said with his eyes looking up.​Sabrina said, "Oh, right, that must be the trash. He is indeed always Angeline's driver. Just let it be, what matters is that the first terror has been carried out. They will definitely be anxious and unable to sleep tonight. Hahaha..."​Diaz did not show any reaction to what Sabrina said. Because he was still thinking about the male figure he only saw at a glance.​The man looked somewhat familiar and Diaz felt like he had met him before. But because it wasn't clear, he couldn't remember who the man was.​"Hey, why are you just staying silent? Are you afraid of Angeline's husband?" Sabrina asked with a smile.​She tried to tease Diaz so the man would get annoyed, but in reality, it didn't happen.​Diaz was trying so hard to remember the
